The company did not give a numerical score, but instead pointed out whether each camera was category was "vulnerable," "secured" or "partially vulnerable" with regard to each category. Of the IP cameras tested, the Logitech Circle, the Myfox Security Camera and the Netgear Arlo fared the best. Each earned three out of a possible three stars from AV TEST. The company found "no noticeable vulnerabilities in the communication of the camera and app" in each camera, meaning that they're about as secure as IP cameras can get. However, AV TEST noted "optimization potential" for each camera's companion mobile app, suggesting that the user interfaces are not as user friendly as they could be.

ore his guys to "hunker down you Dawgs, hunker it down one time" can bring a smile to even this snooty North Easterner. I agree with everyone who called this charming. I thought it was quite a delightful Tuesday, and there were actually sections that gave me some trouble. If I'd been able to think of MAMMA MIA right off the bat, that would have helped. I haven't read any of the comments in detail yet, so maybe one or more people have already said this. But the innocence of these old timey expressions makes crystal clear how much has been lost in the coarsening of our culture over the years. We're a more knowing and sophisticated society, but I'm not at all sure that we're a better one. Anyway, a colorful and very different sort of puzzle. @mathgent I hope the instructions you received earlier today enable you to put your name in blue. You deserve to be in blue. No one could possibly deserve it more!@ Nancy,I know you were being generous and even handed when you said today's society is more sophisticated, but I'm not sure I agree.
